In the presented paper its author, after having differentiated the cultural forms of perspectives on any worldly phenomena, undertakes the task to characterize the possible approaches, and the typical ones for humanities, toward the social phenomenon of “home education”. Referring to situational, ideologically motivated frauds in the field, the author, while citing many statements based on the newest quantitative research outcomes, tries to demolish the false stereotypes ascribed to the special form of education, being a social convention breaker, although absolutely legal one in a democratic society.
